The recent episode of The Young and the Restless sees Nick reaching out to Summer to reveal Noah’s return and teasing that he has some

important intel to share. This information could either prompt Summer to return to Genoa City or keep her where she is. However, if she

does return, curiosity has already grown around who could step into the role of Phyllis Summers and Nicholas Newman’s daughter.

 

 

In the recent episode, Nick dials Summer to keep her well-informed about the latest happenings related to her family in Genoa City. He reveals that Noah has returned and also teases that he has important intel to share. This information is likely about her mother, Phyllis, whose rage has boiled over and led her to go to greater lengths. In the process, she has also attacked her grandfather’s empire. Now, these details could potentially bring back Summer, incorporating her effectively into the latest storyline.

Over the years, Summer Newman has been played by multiple actresses, with the most recent one being Allison Lanier, whose tenure lasted from 2022 to 2025. In April 2025, Lanier took to X (formerly Twitter) to address her departure and to express her gratitude for the opportunity. She wrote, “Hi guys!! This Friday, May 2nd, will be my last episode on Y&R!” she wrote. “I’ve loved the journey and learned so much but it’s time to grow in a different direction… very grateful for all of the Y&R fans who have supported me <3.”
